Gives birth to a new word over accusation of stealing tweets
All thanks to Miss Universe contestant, we now have a new word to add to our vocabulary-twagerism.
The act of stealing someone else's tweets to make you look more intelligent, yes that's what 'twagerism' is.
According to news.com.au, the new word was coined from claims that a Miss Universe contestant "borrowed" tweets originally published by a newspaper columnist.
Miss Universe India, Vasuki Sunkavalli, in her Twitter profile and updates seemed to have a good grasp on politics and current affairs. We now know the source of her knowlegde.
In one of her tweet, she wrote about the Indian proposal for an anti-corruption ombudsman. "Only in India can you lead a movement to add an extra layer of unweildy [sic] regulation to fix a problem caused by too much unweildy [sic] regulation.
The columnist coludn't help but spot the strong resemblance. He then found 7 of her 29 tweets were his own.
Dhume took to the twitterverse and accused the beauty pageant contestant of "twagerism".
To her defence Ms Sunkavalli said she was unaware of the etiquette of "retweeting".
It wasnt [sic] accidental. cant possibly cut copy AND paste accidentally now can I just dint [sic] know the technical know how of retweeting, she wrote.
Dhume knew it was a battle he should let go and tweeted it as a "tempest in a teapot", admitting Ms Sunkavalli looked better than he did in a swimsuit.
It's not quite a "male-only China" yet! :)
No comment.
I’d hit it.
And I didn’t steal that line from anyone! It’s completely original!
Very Not Guilty!

Does this now count as perjury?
Better get under a cold shower-—here’s her Chana Masala recipe.

Guilty. Punishment - spanking ;)
For you or for her?
Or does it really matter?
Might I suggest a Late Night Commando Raid into China to Whisk these Women away to a more friendly Society, I propose the Same for Middle Eastern Women as well, (There is Great Beauty underneath the veil)
OR we trade our Communists to their Communists for their Women, We get rid of the Dems, They Get rid of their Women, the Libs get to live in a Communist Society, and the ChiComs get their Worker Numbers back, Works all the way around
. . . Let stand for 15 minutes, then serve, with garnish, off of her delicious tummy.
She obviously trying to curry favor.
Beautiful woman who probably smells like last week’s pot roast.
She’s no Frida Pinto. I gotta vote butterface. Sorry. :-(
“Howdy Miss India, I’m Rick Perry and I’m here to administer your punishment...so come lie across my knee and I’m gonna spank y’all’s heine ‘til it’s as red as Texas.”
Just curious: How does tweet theft become “twagerism”? I wonder how the word was coined.
Tweet and plagiarism? If so, feh. Someone should coin a more clever word.
I wonder if there is any way to get a twittergasm yet?

Being somewhat adventurous (read lascivious??<:) I opened the link that is on the side of the young ladies photo.
Takes a while to navigate etc but there are some syt’s on there that make this young lady look (somewhat) like a boy.
I am definitely ready to OUTSOURCE MYSELF to India. <: <:
